What is "Dry Fog" mold remediation?

Introduction

Dry fog mold removal is a method of removing mold from buildings and other structures using a specialized fogging machine. The machine produces a fine mist or "fog" of a disinfectant or antimicrobial solution, which is then dispersed throughout the affected area. The fog is designed to penetrate small spaces and crevices, reaching places that may be difficult to access with traditional cleaning methods.

There are a few different ways that dry fog mold removal can work, depending on the specific product and method being used. Some products use a heat-based process, where the fog is heated to a high temperature and then dispersed throughout the affected area. This heat helps to kill the mold spores and disinfect the area. Other products use a chemical-based process, where the fog contains a disinfectant or antimicrobial solution that is designed to kill mold and prevent it from growing
